Texas attorney general says he will sue doctor who gives abortion to Kate Cox
Ken Paxton issues threat after judge ruled this week that Cox, a pregnant woman with a lethal fetal diagnosis, can get an abortion
The Texas attorney general, Ken Paxton, has threatened to prosecute any doctor who provides an abortion to Kate Cox, a woman with a non-viable pregnancy, advising hospitals to ignore a court order issued on Thursday allowing her to get the procedure.
The rightwing Paxton issued the warning to three Houston-area hospitals after a Texas judge ruled this week that Cox, a pregnant woman with a lethal fetal diagnosis, may obtain an abortion under the narrow medical exceptions offered by the state bans.
In a brazen dismissal of the court’s decision, Paxton wrote that the judge’s order “will not insulate hospitals, doctors or anyone else from civil and criminal liability”.
Paxton also wrote that the hospital where Cox obtains an abortion “may be liable for negligent credentialing the physician” who performs the procedure.
Greatest country on earth ladies and gentlemen, land of the free my arse.
Look at this idiot, he even looks like a republican.
What? The "land of the free"? Whoever told you that is your enemy
Francis Scott Key is that enemy
we don't need the key we'll break in
Like what the hackiest cartoonist would draw if asked to draw a republican.
